    Laguna Altura is HOT!

    That's the thing - maybe they just say to their friends "I've got a brand new home in LAGUNA" and conveniently leave out the "Altura".  Most outsiders wouldn't know the difference anyway.  Yep, it's all about the bragging rights and brand names, like it or not. Just go full retard and name the...

    Toyota moving to Texas

    It is, if you're the "right kind" of corporation.  I'm sure if you're a "green" company and donate to the powers that be, you'll be just fine in CA.  Unless the laws of economics take hold.  That's just the way it is, until it's not.  >:D

    Laurel at Cypress Village

    Like Chairman, I'm very particular with my toilets, since in my old house I've lived with a really crappy (yes, pun intended) toilet that always needed courtesy flushes and sometimes required the use of the auger (yuck).  Then in my new place I said "NO MORE!" and did my research and upgraded to...

    Lighting

    Went to the TR Costco Sunday and they had the Luminous LED retrofit kit (1200 lumens) for $15 after $5 rebate.  Picked up four, easy to install, very bright, great deal.  Go get 'em! I only saw a couple of cases there, so might be sold out, or maybe they're just getting the shipment in now.  I...

    Flooring with Outside Contractor

    That's why I'm thinking of installing wood grain ceramic tile in the kitchen to replace the original builder grade tile floor with the extra wide grout lines.

    Favorite TV Dinner

    Classic TV... dinner...  :P Still fondly remember the salisbury steak dinner with mashed potatoes, corn, and brownie dessert.  'Good' stuff when I was growing up.

    Las Grand Vegas

    Have fun in Vegas!  I hear the Caesar's Palace buffet is pretty good. As for buffet strategy, here's mine: 1. Do a lap around the entire buffet to get an idea of what they have and make a mental note of what appeals most to you. 2. First trip is the scouting trip, to take one or 2 pieces of...

    Lighting

    I actually replaced the old CFL bulb with a LED bulb a couple of weeks ago in the same stairwell location in my house, so had to use the aluminum extension ladder.  It was a bit tricky since the crappy socket housing came loose and I had to jiggle it a few times to tighten it so I can securely...

    Lime aka Green Gold

    You could try a dwarf kumquat tree.  I saw some at Home Depot sometime ago, maybe Lowe's will have it too. Used as a "money tree" for good feng shui.

    The Fruit Sweats

    Pesticide residue will be present even on the inside, especially if it's not washed before cutting. I had a similar reaction a long time ago when I ate some fruit (forget what it was, might have been peaches or apples), when my lips felt warm and itchy and swelled up a bit.  Nowadays I always...
